My dearest Vartika,
More than five years into calling you my wife, I still catch myself feeling unbelievably lucky that I get to call you mine. You have this quiet way of caring for everyone around you, this wonderfully funny way of making even a normal day memorable, and a heart that feels things so deeply. I see all of it, Cutie. I love all of it.
I love the warmth you bring into our life. I love that your emotions are always honest, that your laughter is never far away, and that your stubborn side can somehow turn even a difference of opinion into something I want to smile about later. You keep life real, lively, and full of feeling — and I would not want it any other way.
Thank you for being my home in the middle of every kind of day. Thank you for all the tiny things that may look ordinary but have become precious because they are shared with you. On your birthday, I wish you a year as generous, bright, and beautiful as the love you give so effortlessly.
May you be celebrated loudly, held gently, and reminded every day of how deeply you are loved. I am so grateful that this life is ours to keep building — one silly conversation, one soft moment, one stubborn little win at a time.
Always yours,
Vaibhav ♥
